The Old Course Hotel, Golf Resort & Spa has launched a "Suite Golf" package that offers guaranteed tee times on St Andrews' Old Course, recognized worldwide as the Home of Golf.

Whilst indulging their passion for golf, visitors can enjoy life in a luxury suite at the five-star Old Course Hotel, which enjoys a unique location overlooking the 17 th Road Hole of the Old Course and St Andrews Bay, made famous by the iconic film Chariots of Fire.

In addition to a round over the Old Course, the three-night package includes a tee time at The Duke's Course, the Peter Thomson-designed heathland course that offers majestic views over the historic town of St Andrews, and a round over either the New or Jubilee Course.

Off the course, the Suite Golf package also comprises dinner on two nights in the Road Hole Fine Dining, the hotel's award-winning restaurant that boasts three AA rosettes, and a 50-minute luxury spa treatment in the hotel's Kohler Waters Spa.

"St Andrews is a world-renowned golfing mecca and the best place from which to enjoy it is the luxurious Old Course Hotel, Golf Resort & Spa, which borders the 17 th fairway of the Old Course making the experience all the more memorable ," says Debbie Taylor, Managing Director, Old Course Hotel, Golf Resort & Spa.

"Due to overwhelming demand, the St Andrews Links Trust traditionally runs a daily ballot for the highly-coveted tee times on the Old Course, so it is a real bonus to be able to include guaranteed tee times on a course considered a must play due to its historic place in the heart of golf."

In addition to playing golf, visitors can also sample the unique atmosphere and historical coastal setting of St Andrews by visiting the historical buildings of St Andrews Castle, the Cathedral ruins and the University of St Andrews, the most ancient in Scotland. Around St Andrews there are also many picturesque fishing villages, such as East Neuk, Crail and Anstruther, to explore as well as numerous country parks and nature trails.

The Suite Golf package, launched in honour of 'Homecoming Scotland 2009', a series of events throughout the year in honour of poet Robert Burns' 250 th birthday, starts at £1,770 per person based on two people sharing and is valid until the end of 2009.
